This seems sub-optimal.
A map from the US National Hurricane Center showing Melissa, a category 5 hurricane with 175 mph winds and a pressure of 909 mb, aiming to make direct hits on Jamaica, Cuba, the Bahamas, and the Turks and Caicos over the next 60 hours with only a gradual loss in intensity throughout.

Their dimensions, size, and simple coloring make me think of Hanafuda (but even smaller yet!)
Hanafuda cards set up for a game of Koi-koi, with eight face up in the center and 8 in each of two hands, laid face down, and the remaining 24 in a face down stack. The cards themselves are small, nearly twice as tall as they are wide, and have simply drawn and colored designs related to plants, animals, and symbols of Japanese culture.

He claimed it was because he didn't like races that looked like 'people wearing cheesy rubber suits', but then he turned the Trilarian from their MoO2 form on the left to their MoO3 form on the right. Which looks extraterrestrial and which looks like a human in a fish suit to you?
A portrait of a Trilarian from Master of Orion 2, a light blue aquatic creature with a head containing multiple eyes and tentacle-like projections, a slim torso with a pair of small, jointed appendages and a pair fo wing-like structures. A portrait of a Trilarian from Master of Orion 3, a blue-green aquatic creature which looks like a large fish head with a fin across the middle of the top and a double appendage from its shoulder.

The rainy day gave me an idea.
A meme edit. On the left is says "Designed With Gamers In Mind" and shows mammatus clouds, so named for their breast-like appearance. On the right it says "Designed with Activists In Mind" and shows below some simple nimbostratus clouds, flat and fairly nondescript.

On desktop, sometimes when I navigate to another profile or even just something reposted by another user and then go back to my profile, it'll have that user's name over my own.

Me when I'm moving off the coast of Guinea and drifting into waters that are favorable for tropical development
A snippet of a map from the National Hurricane Center indicating a low pressure off the coast of Guinea in Africa and showing that it will drift west into an area north of South America favorable for development into a tropical system with a 50% chance of doing so in the next 7 days.

Mine's really spot on. I grew up in Virginia and most of my family is from Maryland. The results' focus on New York City came mainly from saying 'sunshower', which is coincidence; I came up with the term on my own before ever hearing anyone say it.
My result for the New York Times' US dialect map, showing a concentration along the Mid-Atlantic and South, oarticularly heavy around Virginia, Maryland, and DC, with the cities of Richmond, Washington, and New York specifically labeled.
